This device is absolutely incredible training tool that I could use with students in my stem programs for training without the expense of additional equipment and it will provide a solid base for training especially in low income environment in which I trained in.
I saw this thing drop 11 years ago, but couldn't afford it then. It's a bit frustrating to see the exact same hardware at the exact same price today. I think that boils down to several factors out of Pitaya's control, but it's still frustrating.
It would be really great to compare it with Open Source/Open Hardware projects which are out there... Like ThunderScope. Which is a lot more capable. As the functionality goes you are largely relying on ngscopeclient anyway.
Nice video! Red Pitaya actually seems like it could become the de-facto oscilloscope out there due to that marketplace. It's sort of like the Raspberry Pi of oscilloscopes. I only know about it because of your video, so thank you.
@@qnbits After looking further, Red Pitaya has been around for 10 years. I would think it would have become the "Raspberry Pi of oscilloscopes" already by then. So, why have I never heard of it until this video? I've been deep in electronics forever, so should have.
Well I've heard about these some time ago, but could never figure out what they were so I just canned the idea of looking it up (too much on my plate), but now in the first few minutes of this video I found all I need to know. Thanks.
I am doing my computer engineering MsC, but I realised, that I am more interested in low level software / hardware and sensors, than high level programs. With the #RedPitaya, I could test / debug sensor pcb designs, and help me learn a lot about the use of all these tools and this field.
I'm a studying photonics and Photonic Integrated circuits and we've been trying to work on a project to develop a Electro-optical VNA. The #RedPitaya would help me greatly moving forward with this project and overall with my education. It'd even be very useful as a hobbyist for electronics and SDR enthusiast!
I officially retired just three days ago. So, what does one do? Well, as a technician, you start with the big cleanup. You begin with your lab... which I've already been working on for three days now.😆 Then you think, those old power supplies, that ancient oscilloscope-they take up so much space... If only I could replace them with something more modern, something that takes up far less room and offers more features. Then, by chance, I stumbled upon this "Red Pitaya" video here, something I had never heard of or even knew existed. I immediately gave you a thumbs up and subscribed. Thank you for this amazing information!🧐
I’ve been learning electronics slowly to complement my study of programming first in C, and looking forward to branching or extending to C++ naturally. This video is pretty eye opening! The #RedPitaya is such a capable and useful device! I had no idea such a jack-of-all-trades existed, complete with all of the I/O ports, cpu sections and addons - the #RedPitaya sounds even more interesting than its name, and I hope to add one to my arsenal soon.
I see alot of possibilities for the #RedPitaya for my company. We are specialised in production optimisation , mostly in the automotive industry. since we are focused on lean and industry 4.0 solutions, there are alot of different signals involved, from canbus to plc, from analog to digital. Having an all included device capable of this blew my mind. Our company consists of nerds, from programmers to electronic geeks (like me) so this would fit right in. I immediately imagined plugging one or more of these devices over the systems of the client and remotely monitor the signals from the office is a whole new approach. Now we often have to be on site and 'bother' the operators. Thank you for this great presentation! I'd love to win one of these to try out and see what this puppy... eehm #RedPitaya can do.
After spending thirty years in the automotive industry, I'm finding myself crossing over to the embedded side of things, a highspeed logic analyzer would be the bee's knees. The #RedPitaya looks like it could fit the bill into my embedded systems journey.
I want to use Red Pitaya to create a smart, comfortable wheelchair by analyzing biomedical signals in real-time . With signal processing through FPGA and programming, I will capture and analyze these signals, applying algorithms like filters and FFT. This project aims to improve the user experience by integrating health monitoring features, making the wheelchair not only comfortable but also smart and responsive to the user's needs.
I saw the old USSR oscilloscope C1-65(?) on your video, I felt nostalgic. I once had one of these, real heavy iron, switches that click with force and make a loud crackling sound... Not like modern plastic devices - you sneeze hard and they fly off the table.
Actually there are cheaper and better alternative for oscilloscope or FPGA dev board... RP is a dead body, so sorry it was a great idea but with poor software and a close ecosystem, not a chance to revive 😭
This would only be able to measure from 0Hz to 50Mhz based on the specs. You are going to need to look for something else to measure in your needed range.
2.4GHz upwards is beyond most cheap dedicated scopes, never mind this thing. You need roughly 2 and a bit samples minimum per Hz you are sampling, so 6GHz would need a sample rate of over 12G samples/sec. There are ways of cheating and lowering your sample rate, but 125M samples/sec isn’t going to get even close.
A few years ago, I was working on the development of a 3D sensor network system and analytics application for agriculture (production optimization, decision support). I had to cancel the project as it was a non-profit research and I lacked tools like a proper logic analyzer and a spectrum analyzer. THIS was the tool I needed back then and I think I would start again if I had one. #RedPitaya
We can all read the specs. We know what it can and can't do. For me, I have had this model for years it's a still very capable and useful piece of kit. It has a place on my bench now. To be able to bring this many bench tools, digital and analog, while being able to explore/learn each instrument, is invaluable for the price. The added blog coupled with programming resources all in a modular web format make Red Pitaya accessible with a level of maturity and development with a scale that few devices rise to. This is a tool many of us appreciate and need. Most devices are released with no future development. Red Pitaya is a great exception. #RedPitaya
Erm, the ZINQ7010 has both the FPGA fabric and ARM A9 CPUs on the one chip. The FPGA can be programmed to appear as devices within the ARM memory map (and the two can share SDRAM).
This is so cool. Has always been fascinated by electronics although studied software engineering later. I would like to build build oscilloscope, learn more about PID control, and RF transmission 😊 #RedPitaya 🎉
It would be very handy to have an oscillocsope, a signal generator, a signal analyzer and even more in a single small device for tinkering with microcontrollers and sensors, and also for electronics repairs which I'm learning as a hobby. #RedPitaya
Great video on an extremely opaque device! Can't understand why you didn't address the shortcomings, though. The analog inputs can't take the voltage ranges of a regular oscilloscope, the analog bandwidth is too low for RF tinkering. It's basically the backend of an oscilloscope or spectrum analyzer, but all the frontend is still missing!
The last time I looked at the Zynq the tool costs were way too high. I want a offline permanent license and I can't use the education option. I really like the ability to archive the VM's so I can compile my VHDL code on specific tool versions so I can be sire it's not a compiler issue when replicating issues.
Thank you for doing a video on #RedPitaya. Would never cross my mind to look for AIO kit... because I did not think that such a thing existed. Anyhow, I'm working on a Situational Awareness solution for Search and Rescue that, hopefully, can also be used in Ukraine. From what I've seen/read it seems like this would make field testing/troubleshooting much easier (and lighter) with so many instruments consolidated into one device. I wonder how else it could be used in my project - probably got to keep on watching/reading to get a grasp on RedPitaya's full potential.
I really appreciate your efforts! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
As a recent graduate in IoT and Embedded Systems Engineering, owning a Red Pitaya STEMlab would be a dream come true for me. Unfortunately, I can’t afford such an amazing device, but it would be an incredible resource to deepen my knowledge and work on advanced projects. This opportunity could truly shape my career! #RedPitaya ❤🙏🙏❤❤🙏
As someone passionate about electronics and signal processing, getting the Pitaya would let me explore advanced RF apps and improve my debugging skills using the oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer. #RedPitaya
If you have been looking for some low-cost oscilloscope/Signal generator combo, this seems to be almost too good to be true for the posted price. I'd really like to add this to my workshop, even if I don't win it. Thank you for the awesome product #RedPitaya
With the Red Pitaya, I could dive deeper into FPGA programming and embedded system debugging, making it an essential tool for both learning and practical projects. #RedPitaya
I'm increasing my spectrum of creativity on electronics, also involving different products such as raspberry and Arduino ones. I love keep learning and improving as an engineer and I have a lot of love on new tools and educational toolkits. I would love to have the opportunity to get in contact with this amazing product #RedPitaya
I am currently in undergraduate studies and accepted in the graduate program for ECE and I work in a lab that designs RF solutions. I would love to be able to have a tool I can carry around to test my school projects, personal projects, and carry around the lab in the case I have a DUT with no available scopes! Thanks for the opportunity! #RedPitaya
Had no idea that it was an fpga. If I won it I'd use it as an sdr to scan the radios around me. I'd try the logic analyser software for the capabilities to decipher my electronics.
Please DO NOT ever use oscilloscope probes (the items referred to as "BNC") as outputs!!!!! They are designed to be inputs for each of the two oscilloscope channels and NOT as one for "scope" input and the other as waveform generator output!!!! Depending on the probe, you can damage the probe when using it as a signal source or output! You should use one oscilloscope probe cable connected to either oscilloscope channel and then the push-to-clip or needle-tip of the probe to contact the output of the waveform generator - you could just insert into the output connector or use SMA/BNC to flying leads to make a proper "scope to wave generator" connection... However you decide to connect things NEVER use a scope probe as a signal source!!!!!
indeed - and the bag with coloured rings is for identifying the scope probes - fit one at each end of the probe so you know which is which and don't get them mixed up. Ideally the probe colour would also match the colour of the trace on the display. And the little screwdriver is for calibrating the frequency response of the probe.
People that do not know that should go to school. All the fancy boards will not help if you do not know how it works. A calculator is no good when you do not know math.
I´ve been thinking of gettin a #RedPitaya already for a while. I am developing an avalanche beacon (a transceiver to localize victims of avalanche, working close to the 500kHz) and I would use the #RedPitaya as the main RF frontend for both RX and TX. The RX side is a 3-channel coherent frontend so that, when connected to a 3D ferrite antenna, gives us the amplitudes (importantly: in phase, to get the relative signs) of the field in the X, Y and Z directions, hence obtaining the full magnetic vector. This we will use to make some calculations and determine the location of the victim, which lies under the snow! With the 125-14 I'd only have 2 channels, but I can prove all my concepts in 2D (Just X and Y antennas) and then synchronize with a second unit to obtain the 3rd channel.
#RedPitaya I graduated as an electronic technician a couple of years back, but due to complications caused by long covid and a genetic disease I have, I had to move from Iceland to Denmark to access a healthcare system that could cater to my needs. I had to leave most of my workshop behind and am basically stating from scratch and due to the costs of moving and the fact that I can't work, it goes slowly. To keep my mind healthy, I try to work on electronic projects, but the lack of tools has been hampering my process. I would love to get a #RedPitaya to be able to keep my knowledge sharp, learn to program FPGAs, prototype circuits and help me get back on my feet faster. Thank you for this very informative video and thanks #RedPitaya for this amazing product
Well, this is capeable SoC Just what I was looking for to create new projects and creations.... Should be fun to use due to C language support #RedPitaya
Extremely ? Like what ? Mine is sleeping in a drawer ... The worst puchase I made 🤦 Better give the money to poor people it would have been better used 🙂↕️
Yep, a Swiss army knife. Have you ever tried to eat a meal when the knife, fork and spoon are riveted together? Fail. Now try to use the Red Pitaya as a scope, logic analyser and signal analyzer at the same time - good luck with that. It's like thinking that because you have a multimeter, you can debug your new design with just one of them. I have a fast, cheap 4 ch MSO scope with 16 digital inputs. I don't need a network, I don't need a computer, I don't need a monitor, I don't need a browser. I don't need to reconfigure it every time I need a different function and I don't need to learn yet another user interface. If I want to, I can control it remotely via LXI or connect my laptop via USB to download data, BUT I don't have to, to do almost any job. Funny how the presenter never mentioned any drawbacks. This vid is not much more than a half hour infomercial.
I would like to use it to generate high-fidelity analog signals (a mix of multiple frequency sine waves) to control a haptic device that I’m currently designing #RedPitaya
I am currently studying Electrical Engineering. I want to win the Edu Pack so I can use the Oscilloscope and Generator for electronic measurements/debugging, use the Logic Analyzer for Embedded debugging, use the DFT Spectrum/ VNA for Signal Processing & RF, learn Verilog/FPGA development, and learn the RedPitaya environment. #RedPitaya
That FPGA is old and has become quite cheap. MYiR sells Z-turn Board from $120 which is very similar to the Red Pitaya albeit without the DAC/ADC. RP is a bit overpriced, sadly.
A #RedPitaya would be an amazing device to have in our EE scientific student club (1,2,3 VIVA ISC 🗣🔥🔥) . Having such a versatile tool would allow anyone in our club to work easily on any advanced project, we are talking FPGA encryption accelerators, custom RF protocol, modulation and demodulation etc I just love when opportunities like these pop up that sponsor learners!
Yeah, it's a wonderful piece of kit, i guess... Especially for those just lesrning, cuz there's lots to learn! But, if I'm developing something, i don't want to have to also spend the time & effort (& frustration) of developing the tools that I'm using to develop my project! I don't want to learn how to program an FPGA, for instance. And, i don't want to have to write a bunch of code just to analyze the output of the project I'm actually developing! So...not for me. Give me a free standing O'scope & a signal generator any day. Then I'll get some work done.
Just bought couple of sbRio boards, i would've definitely bought this had inknown about it. Edit: unfortunately the LabVIEW support is very limited, connection over SCPI, and one cannot use the LabVIEW's FPGA and/or Realtime module to work with onboard FPGA.
Man this is so cool, i was checking out the website and was looking at the diagnostic kit, and i noticed the ethernet only connection deal.. That is such a deal breaker man. Why couldn't they have a version with USB instead? Lets say i want to use this with a laptop portable.. man such a letdown.
one can easily go into the router and figure out the address of any device on the network.... from what you've shown nothing indicates that would not be possible. meaning the qr code is not that important. In fact, the documentation says as much.... and the last 6 char. before the .local, are the last 6 chars of the mac address. While not that important, attention to detail is one of the biggest things in tech work.... and saying something is important when it's not, well, it's just not a good look.
I am teaching computer science at a high school. I am working on adding some programming of controllers to my classroom. I would like to show them what the signals look like on the classroom smart board as they control robots and what not. #RedPitaya
Please practice holding your hands still when showing something or set it down so we can see it. I can not understand whatever sign language you are using or why your arms twitch and flail to match your mouth movements. Would you do this if I was standing right there? After all, YT is a one-on-one experience.
Red Pitaya was a great idea. I own one from the beginning. But thanks to the bad/inacceptable software it is of little or no use. Thanks to the dire ecosystem (thanks to the non opensource model and pricey options) it has little alternative outside of an oscilloscope that has vey few features bundled and that had almost no new features since years 🤦On the bottom line you can buy real oscilloscope (say siglent) for a fraction of the price and get a bunch of more tools like signal generartor and a vna that will all come with decent enclosures and premium probes and upgradable/up to date firmware for the rest of the money. Sorry to the inventors but this is a dying & failed concept because by trying to milk the cow they just killed the mojo 🤦 Having no opensource should have been a show stopper for me. I do regret to have bought one, it is of no use at all since even the oscilloscope one is simply dumb and clunky compared to a basic one 😭 Save your money and see better/cheaper/ more open alternative that will last longer 🥂 They should have gone full opensource and free/open dev kit to generate a vibrant ecosystem from day one. The board should have been design with more I/O to be able to plug and use the FPGA for other use without requiring another expensive board or quirky tricks.... So sad to see a great FPGA close to be useless 🙃
It would be very handy to have an oscillocsope, a signal generator, a signal analyzer and even more in a single small device for tinkering with microcontrollers and sensors, and also for electronics repairs which I'm learning as a hobby. #RedPitaya

Would love to use one in our electronics class at our local makerspace!
Hmm what ranges can it catch? It seems like there is nothing written. I sort of want to measure VAN in 2.4Ghz to 6Ghz..
This would only be able to measure from 0Hz to 50Mhz based on the specs. You are going to need to look for something else to measure in your needed range.

Using #RedPitaya FPGA to make tensor units to do some ML operations. Matrix multiplication math always fascinated me.

Cool toy. I would select e.g. MSO46 4-BW-200 or something familiar.
Having a home lab optimized in only one small single board computer sounds crazy 🚀🛰 #RedPitaya
I'd love to have an SOC based fpga, the Red Pitaya would fit well in my lab.

Wouldn't mind playing with one of these, especially the sdr.
I would love to learn new things and experiment with new tools #RedPitaya
I would like see what I'm building when testing electrical designs as well as see if it can do an NRSC reading. #RedPitaya

Electro optic VNA. Such a cool idea!

Ideally the probe colour would also match the colour of the trace on the display. And the little screwdriver is for calibrating the frequency response of the probe.
A 1x probe actually works perfectly fine as a signal output, just make sure it’s actually in 1x mode

It sounds like the Red Pitaya could make an awesome DAC and Audio Interface. Is anyone using it for this purpose?
#RedPitaya
I graduated as an electronic technician a couple of years back, but due to complications caused by long covid and a genetic disease I have, I had to move from Iceland to Denmark to access a healthcare system that could cater to my needs.
I had to leave most of my workshop behind and am basically stating from scratch and due to the costs of moving and the fact that I can't work, it goes slowly.
To keep my mind healthy, I try to work on electronic projects, but the lack of tools has been hampering my process.
I would love to get a #RedPitaya to be able to keep my knowledge sharp, learn to program FPGAs, prototype circuits and help me get back on my feet faster.
Thank you for this very informative video and thanks #RedPitaya for this amazing product
Well, this is capeable SoC Just what I was looking for to create new projects and creations.... Should be fun to use due to C language support #RedPitaya
Sweep mode produced all of the harmonics.
My dream to have one.. for an SDR (software designed radio) analyzer, for study of VLF frequencies and radio waves
I want to use it to sort some antennas for their characteristics. #RedPitaya
Hi, i'm from algeria(Afriqua), i would like to have a red pitaya because i need it for my studies and my experimentations, thanks in advance.
I want it because i am a computer engineer and i have the ability to use all of its functionalities . #RedPitaya
Red Pitaya is in the market many many years already (more than 10 year at least). Why making a video about it now? Besides, it is too expensive.
Would love to get one into my hands to develop some verilog for it to debug my faulty hardware #RedPitaya
These types of devices are extremely useful except that is quite expensive. A lot can be done with a cheap logic analyzer and an SDR.
Extremely ? Like what ? Mine is sleeping in a drawer ... The worst puchase I made 🤦 Better give the money to poor people it would have been better used 🙂↕️
Yep, a Swiss army knife. Have you ever tried to eat a meal when the knife, fork and spoon are riveted together? Fail. Now try to use the Red Pitaya as a scope, logic analyser and signal analyzer at the same time - good luck with that. It's like thinking that because you have a multimeter, you can debug your new design with just one of them. I have a fast, cheap 4 ch MSO scope with 16 digital inputs. I don't need a network, I don't need a computer, I don't need a monitor, I don't need a browser. I don't need to reconfigure it every time I need a different function and I don't need to learn yet another user interface. If I want to, I can control it remotely via LXI or connect my laptop via USB to download data, BUT I don't have to, to do almost any job. Funny how the presenter never mentioned any drawbacks. This vid is not much more than a half hour infomercial.
#RedPitaya I would like to leverage the test equipment features for use in my workshop
I would like to use it to generate high-fidelity analog signals (a mix of multiple frequency sine waves) to control a haptic device that I’m currently designing
#RedPitaya
Hello Mister Elektramaker, Auto-Translation is BS
I am currently studying Electrical Engineering. I want to win the Edu Pack so I can use the Oscilloscope and Generator for electronic measurements/debugging, use the Logic Analyzer for Embedded debugging, use the DFT Spectrum/ VNA for Signal Processing & RF, learn Verilog/FPGA development, and learn the RedPitaya environment. #RedPitaya
İf there is a fpga it is where the money talks
Had no idea it was an fpga either. No wonder it was so expensive!
That FPGA is old and has become quite cheap. MYiR sells Z-turn Board from $120 which is very similar to the Red Pitaya albeit without the DAC/ADC. RP is a bit overpriced, sadly.
@@plemli the DAC it uses (AD9767)
is roughly 42USD so the DAC isn't cheap either. Very interesting about that fpga.
I haven’t much money to own logic analyzer and spectrum analyzer 😊 it could be my dream product #RedPitaya
i saw the price, then I forgot about this thing 😢
A #RedPitaya would be an amazing device to have in our EE scientific student club (1,2,3 VIVA ISC 🗣🔥🔥) . Having such a versatile tool would allow anyone in our club to work easily on any advanced project, we are talking FPGA encryption accelerators, custom RF protocol, modulation and demodulation etc I just love when opportunities like these pop up that sponsor learners!
Yeah, it's a wonderful piece of kit, i guess...
Especially for those just lesrning, cuz there's lots to learn!
But, if I'm developing something, i don't want to have to also spend the time & effort (& frustration) of developing the tools that I'm using to develop my project!
I don't want to learn how to program an FPGA, for instance.
And, i don't want to have to write a bunch of code just to analyze the output of the project I'm actually developing!
So...not for me.
Give me a free standing O'scope & a signal generator any day.
Then I'll get some work done.
#RedPitaya I want to reverse engineer an Ethernet gigabit stream. there are no good solution online, and a scope for it will be very expansive.
Just bought couple of sbRio boards, i would've definitely bought this had inknown about it.
Edit: unfortunately the LabVIEW support is very limited, connection over SCPI, and one cannot use the LabVIEW's FPGA and/or Realtime module to work with onboard FPGA.
What is a FPGA?
Field programmable gate array. Xilinx invented in 1984 I think. Let’s you configure logic using software.
@@mmaranta785 Thank you.
nice, but expensive, for a miser like me.
The #RedPitaya would be a great way to mentor the Grand Kids in their STEM education.
Man this is so cool, i was checking out the website and was looking at the diagnostic kit, and i noticed the ethernet only connection deal.. That is such a deal breaker man. Why couldn't they have a version with USB instead? Lets say i want to use this with a laptop portable.. man such a letdown.
Then you get a cheap usb to ethernet dongle?
It would encourage me to get back to my EE roots after being in software for so long #RedPitaya
one can easily go into the router and figure out the address of any device on the network.... from what you've shown nothing indicates that would not be possible. meaning the qr code is not that important.
In fact, the documentation says as much.... and the last 6 char. before the .local, are the last 6 chars of the mac address.
While not that important, attention to detail is one of the biggest things in tech work.... and saying something is important when it's not, well, it's just not a good look.
I would love to have such complete and high quality device. As an engineer I see it as a must to have tool. #RedPitaya
A bit to expensive for my taste 🤔
That’s as much and even more than many full-fledged lab scopes that you would purchase in for college.
Is it actually that much better?
I am teaching computer science at a high school. I am working on adding some programming of controllers to my classroom. I would like to show them what the signals look like on the classroom smart board as they control robots and what not. #RedPitaya
👍
Please practice holding your hands still when showing something or set it down so we can see it. I can not understand whatever sign language you are using or why your arms twitch and flail to match your mouth movements. Would you do this if I was standing right there? After all, YT is a one-on-one experience.
$600+ for a devkit that you still need to learn to program to use? No decent case/enclosure included? No, thanks!
redpitaya is botting the hell out of the comment section 🤣
This vlog will give bananas a bad rep.
#redpitaya
I really want to build an SDR and start developing a Radio receiver which includes a touch screen display and waterfall mode
Red Pitaya was a great idea. I own one from the beginning. But thanks to the bad/inacceptable software it is of little or no use. Thanks to the dire ecosystem (thanks to the non opensource model and pricey options) it has little alternative outside of an oscilloscope that has vey few features bundled and that had almost no new features since years 🤦On the bottom line you can buy real oscilloscope (say siglent) for a fraction of the price and get a bunch of more tools like signal generartor and a vna that will all come with decent enclosures and premium probes and upgradable/up to date firmware for the rest of the money. Sorry to the inventors but this is a dying & failed concept because by trying to milk the cow they just killed the mojo 🤦 Having no opensource should have been a show stopper for me. I do regret to have bought one, it is of no use at all since even the oscilloscope one is simply dumb and clunky compared to a basic one 😭 Save your money and see better/cheaper/ more open alternative that will last longer 🥂 They should have gone full opensource and free/open dev kit to generate a vibrant ecosystem from day one. The board should have been design with more I/O to be able to plug and use the FPGA for other use without requiring another expensive board or quirky tricks.... So sad to see a great FPGA close to be useless 🙃
"Even these engineers couldn't figure out"... Pan to woke library. ... Lol. The waffle reduces at 2:55 for those tempted to stick with it. 😂.

It would be very handy to have an oscillocsope, a signal generator, a signal analyzer and even more in a single small device for tinkering with microcontrollers and sensors, and also for electronics repairs which I'm learning as a hobby. #RedPitaya
